Order Instituting Rulemaking to Implement the California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program. |
Summary: On November 15, 2005, Daniel Douglass, counsel for the Alliance for Retail Energy Markets, had a telephone conversation with David Gamson, advisor to Cmmr. Brown. Douglass discussed the recent modification to the June 29, 2005 draft decision by ALJ Allen requiring Electric Service Providers (ESPs) to sign ten-year or longer contracts for renewable energy supplies, regardless of whether PGC funds are utilized by the ESP. Douglass explained that the provision was unreasonable. Douglass stated that ESPs should be granted more flexibility regarding the term of such contracts so as not to frustrate their ability to enter into renewable energy arrangements that reflect the term of their agreements with their own customers. | |

Summary: On November 17, 2005, Dexter Khoury of the Office of Ratepayer Advocates met with Rami Kahlon, advisor to Pres. Peevey, in San Francisco. Also present were Billy Blattner, CPUC Relations Manager, San Diego Gas & Electric Company, Jody London representing the City of Chula Vista, and Norman Furuta from the Federal Executive Agencies. Khoury informed the Commission that the proposed decision (PD) of ALJ Long might harm direct access customers, and could have other consequences which the PD did not contemplate. Khoury also stated that all parties would be harmed if the all-party settlement was not adopted as written and that the PD undermines the settlement process and, if adopted, would make it more difficult to reach settlements in the future. | |

Summary: On November 16, 2005, Henry Weissmann, outside counsel for Verizon California Inc., spoke on two occasions by telephone with Tim Sullivan, advisor to Cmmr. Kennedy. During the second telephone conversation also present were Karl Bemesderfer, advisor to Cmmr. Kennedy, and Jennie Chandra, advisor to Cmmr. Peevey. Weissmann stated that the Commission should determine that Public Utilities Code Section 854(b) does not apply to this transaction because none of the parties to the transaction is a utility. Weissmann further stated that the Commission has discretion to exempt the transaction of Section 854(b) even if that statute otherwise applied. Weissman stated further that the draft decision correctly concludes that hearings were not required. | |
